Waronker began writing songs, intending them for a solo project.  However, upon hearing some demos, Geffen insisted she put them to use within the band structure, and steered the project toward a third [[that dog.]] album.  Reluctantly, she agreed, and ''Retreat From The Sun'' was released in 1997.

==Reception==
The album did marginally better than its predecessor, with "[[Never Say Never]]" gaining slight attention at radio and MTV, but inner-band tensions only increased, and it seemed the damage had been done long ago.  After a summer tour, culminating in the tribute concert for [[Mykel and Carli Allan]] in Hollywood on August 15th, the band issued a statement that September announcing their split.

==Japanese bonus track==
The Japanese pressing of the album features an exclusive bonus track, "Fuck You", a lo-fi punk rocker in the tradition of the band's earlier material.
